Our Classes

We understand the power of improv. It’s more than being funny – it’s supporting your partners, it’s taking risks, it’s learning to listen and build on what you’ve heard. The value of improv goes far beyond the stage.

Each class is 8 weeks long and ends with a graduation show on the Studio A stage. All classes are held in the Studio A Theater, 410 Adams St. Toledo. The next round of classes runs from Saturday, March 16th thru Thursday, May 9th. A student showcase will be help in Studio A on Friday May 10th.

Level 3: Seriously, get a room. Risk. Discover. Build. With Nick you'll dip your toes in the long-form bathtub, learning advanced techniques to help you navigate group scenes and long-form improv.

Nick will focus on creating scenic depth rather than breadth, quickly identifying and playing the game of the scene and above all else, maintaining your love affair with spontaneously creating laughter with other people.INSTRUCTOR: Nick Morgan WHEN: Wednesdays 6:30-9pm STARTS: March 20, 2019
